Rassismus ist keine individuelle Charaktereigenschaft, sondern eine Ideologie, die Menschen anhand äusserer Merkmale einteilt und strukturell wirkt. Mit Mona-Lisa Kole, Anti-Rassismus- und Migrationsexpertin bei Frieda, und Ahmed Ajil, Kriminologe und Forscher zu politisch-ideologischer Radikalisierung, sprechen wir in dieser Spezialfolge Meyer:Wermuth über ihre eigenen Erfahrungen mit Rassismus, über Intersektionalität und darüber, wie es sich anfühlt, ständig auf die eigene Identität reduziert zu werden statt auf die eigene Arbeit.Ausserdem diskutieren wir, was die 10-Millionen-Schweiz-Initiative der SVP mit der Gesellschaft gemacht hat: Wie solche Kampagnen rassistische Stereotypen unterbewusst aktivieren und normalisieren, warum die SVP seit Jahrzehnten jedes gesellschaftliche Problem auf Migration zurückführt – und warum auch gut gemeinte Gegenkampagnen manchmal genau die Stereotypen reproduzieren, die sie bekämpfen wollen.Zum Schluss sprechen wir darüber, wie riskant es für rassifizierte Personen ist, sich in der Politik zu exponieren, und was es wirklich braucht, um rassistische Denkmuster in der Gesellschaft zu verändern.((00:00)) Einleitung & Vorstellung Mona-Lisa und Ahmed((09:15)) Erfahrungen als nicht-weiss gelesen / rassifiziert werden((21:08)) Unterschiedliche Diskriminierungserfahrungen((27:08)) Rassismus und Politische Kampagnen((44:10)) Die gefährliche Normalisierung des Diskurses((47:37)) Rassismus ist überall verankert ((55:19)) Dilemma zwischen Mehrheitsgesellschaft und Radikalität((56:50)) Diskussion über Lösungsperspektiven((1:08:20)) Wie können rassistische Denkmuster in der Gesellschaft bekämpft werden?

In A Post-Liberal Peace: How Emergent Powers Are Reshaping Global Conflict Management (Cornell UP, 2026), Dr. Monalisa Adhikari shows how rising powers like India and China are reshaping global peace governance. Over recent decades, both countries have deepened engagement with institutions built on liberal principles, including those related to peacebuilding. Their growing role raises critical questions about how their approaches diverge from liberal models and their impact on the domestic politics of conflict-affected states. Focusing on India and China's involvement in peace processes in Nepal and Myanmar, Dr. Adhikari demonstrates that these powers advance distinctive, state-centered programs that privilege regional stakeholders, stability, development, and pragmatism. Operating under conditions of "negotiated coexistence" with liberal peacebuilders, their initiatives neither fully align with nor openly contest existing actors, limiting cooperation while avoiding confrontation. This pluralized form of international engagement enables domestic elites to resist external pressures, producing hybrid peace orders that incorporate some liberal elements yet remain largely at the status quo—and often illiberal. Rich with archival and interview evidence, A Post-Liberal Peace sheds light on alternative forms of peacebuilding and their on-the-ground effects in an increasingly multipolar world. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Durante más de dos años, la obra de arte más famosa del mundo estuvo escondida en el dormitorio de un hombre que no sabía muy bien qué hacer con ella. Lo verdaderamente extraño es que, antes de desaparecer, la Mona Lisa ni siquiera era la pintura más célebre del Louvre. Se convirtió en un fenómeno mundial cuando dejó de estar allí. El 21 de agosto de 1911, Vincenzo Peruggia, un trabajador italiano que había realizado labores en el museo, descolgó el cuadro, lo sacó del edificio y lo ocultó en su apartamento de París. La noticia recorrió el mundo; los periódicos reprodujeron aquel rostro enigmático una y otra vez, la policía interrogó incluso a Pablo Picasso y miles de personas acudieron al Louvre, no para contemplar una obra maestra, sino para mirar el espacio vacío que había dejado en la pared. El museo había perdido un cuadro y, sin proponérselo, había creado una celebridad. Cuando la pintura regresó en 1914, ya no volvió como una obra más de Leonardo da Vinci. Regresó convertida en la Mona Lisa: un icono internacional cuya ausencia había despertado más curiosidad que siglos enteros de presencia silenciosa. Es una historia sobre arte, pero también sobre atención. Las personas rara vez sentimos curiosidad por aquello que está completamente explicado; nos atraen los huecos, las contradicciones y las piezas que no encajan. Una puerta cerrada genera más conversación que una habitación abierta, y una pared vacía puede resultar más fascinante que el cuadro que antes colgaba de ella. Los mercados funcionan de una manera parecida, aunque con menos mármol y bastante más ansiedad. Cada semana recibimos una avalancha de titulares, cifras y explicaciones aparentemente definitivas. Varias empresas pueden contar una historia casi idéntica, utilizar las mismas palabras y prometer el mismo futuro, pero terminar la sesión bursátil en direcciones opuestas. La diferencia decisiva suele encontrarse en aquello que no aparece en el titular: una cifra ausente, una promesa que todavía no se ha convertido en prueba, un riesgo que parecía pequeño hasta que alguien necesitó vender o una contradicción que el consenso había decidido ignorar porque estaba demasiado ocupado contemplando el cuadro. Por eso, el episodio de esta semana de **Actualidad Semanal +D** no es una lista de noticias ni una excursión guiada por los movimientos del mercado. Es una búsqueda de esas paredes vacías: los detalles que explican por qué compañías que parecían participar en la misma historia recibieron veredictos radicalmente distintos, cómo alguien puede comprender el futuro y, aun así, no sobrevivir al presente, y por qué el mercado suele cambiar de opinión justo cuando todos creen haber entendido sus reglas. Porque la curiosidad financiera no consiste en saber qué ha sucedido. Consiste en detectar qué falta en la explicación que todo el mundo ha aceptado. El nuevo episodio ya está disponible. Procurad no mirar únicamente el cuadro.

 We use our faces more than any other part of our body to communicate with others and that communication has evolved a lot over the centuries. Fay Bound-Alberti founded the Centre for Technology and the Body at King's College London where she leads Interface, a project examining technologies of the face. She joins host Krys Boyd to discuss how facial understanding is tied to where and when people live, what happens when someone is “face blind,” and why the Mona Lisa's smile is still so beguiling.

How does someone steal the Mona Lisa from the Louvre and simply walk away? And how did an even more brazen crew rob the same museum in broad daylight last year with just a cherry picker and some power tools?The real stories are stranger than Hollywood and best-selling author Noah Charney knows them all. One of the world's leading experts on art crime, he has advised museums, governments, and law enforcement agencies around the world.  It turns out that stealing priceless art is often surprisingly easy. It's turning the art into money that's nearly impossible.He explains:◼ How a thief had unwitting Louvre workers help him walk out of the Louvre with the Mona Lisa◼ How a brazen team used a cherry picker, power tools, and high-visibility vests to rob the Louvre in broad daylight◼ Why most real art thieves are nothing like the elegant masterminds portrayed in movies◼ How Napoleon turned art looting into an organized instrument of empire◼ Why criminals steal art and how they get themselves apprehended◼ How movies, fiction, and even the media can unintentionally help art criminals

Today in 1887, the birthday of Marcel Duchamp. He was both an accomplished artist and an artistic provocateur, like the time he released a “new” work of art that was a reproduction of the Mona Lisa, on which he had painted a mustache. Plus: in January 1917, Duchamp and some fellow artists and performers declared the creation of the Free and Independent Republic of Greenwich Village. When Marcel Duchamp Drew a Mustache & Goatee on the Mona Lisa (1919) (Open Culture)When Greenwich Village Artists Partied On Top of the Washington Square Arch (Untapped New York)Back our podcast on Patreon; if you want to draw a mustache on us while you do, go ahead

n 1911, the Mona Lisa vanished from the wall of the Louvre Museum in the center of Paris. One morning she was hanging in the Salon Carré, and shortly after, the most recognizable painting in the world was gone. What followed was a two-year investigation filled with bad assumptions, conflicting witnesses, media pressure, false suspects, radical artists, wealthy collectors, and one ordinary man who may have fooled everyone by looking like he belonged. In this episode, we'll look at the theft of the Mona Lisa from a criminal behavior and investigative perspective. Was this the work of a professional thief? A museum insider? A wealthy collector? Or was the real offender hiding in plain sight all along?I just returned from Paris, where the Mona Lisa still draws huge crowds. That trip sparked a fresh look at this historic case I participated in discussing the case with other experts and Lawrence Fishburne on History's Greatest Mysteries. We looked beyond the art mystery and into opportunity, offender behavior, investigative assumptions, and how one theft helped turn the Mona Lisa into a worldwide icon. Let's examine the empty frame, the missing doorknob, the early use of fingerprint evidence and the suspicion around Eddie Guerin, Pablo Picasso , Guillaume Apollinaire, J.P. Morgan and a relatively unknown Italian named Vincenzo Peruggia.#ProfilingEvil #MikeKing #WhoStoleTheMonaLisa #MonaLisa #MonaLisaHeist #Louvre #LouvreMuseum #Paris #France #ArtCrime #ArtHeist #TrueCrime #TrueCrimeCommunity #TrueCrimePodcast #TrueCrimeYouTube #CrimeHistory #HistoryMystery #FamousHeists #CriminalBehavior #CriminalProfiling #Investigation #ColdCase #SolvedMystery #LeonardoDaVinci #VincenzoPeruggia #PabloPicasso #JPMorgan #Mystery #CrimeStory #TrueCrimeFans========================================20% OFF Newspapers.comhttps://www.newspapers.com/go/podcast/?ref=profilingevil?xid=8877&utm_source=ProfilingEvilPodcast&utm_medium=podcst&utm_campaign=ProfilingEvil26========================================Discounts on eBikes: https://aipasbike.com/?ref=PROFILINGEVILReferral Coupon Code: PROFILINGEVIL========================================Email your questions to: ProfilingEvil@gmail.com========================================

Hoje em dia, a Mona Lisa de Leonardo da Vinci é a pintura mais famosa do mundo. Mas o caminho até ela chegar a esse título tão impactante foi cheio de surpresas. Em 1911, quando o quadro já estava no Louvre há mais de um século, ela foi roubada e isso deixou Paris e o mundo de cabeça para baixo. ***Petlove: Contrate o plano anual do Clube Petlove com o cupom MODUSOPERANDI60 e garanta 6 meses grátis no primeiro ano.

I want to talk about what took Leonardo da Vinci 16 years and at least 30 layers of paint to create, and what that has to do with the life you're building right now. The Mona Lisa is not famous despite its layers of mistakes and revisions. It is famous because of them. In this episode, I break down why the struggles, failures, and seasons where nothing seems to work are not obstacles to your legacy. They are the actual material your legacy is made from. If your goal is to be legendary, you cannot afford to keep treating your hardest chapters like something to bury. Key Takeaways Greatness takes time. Sacrificing legacy for immediacy is one of the most costly trades you can make. Your mistakes and setbacks are not liabilities. They are layers that create a texture nobody else can replicate. The biggest smiles are built on the most tears. What you have been through gives you a perspective and depth that others cannot copy. Your current difficult season is not your final form. It is the foundation being built beneath what the world will eventually see. Do not bury your failures. Own them, because nobody can take your lived experience from you. Action Steps Identify one past failure or painful experience and write down one specific insight or strength it gave you that you could not have gained any other way. Audit where you are rushing something important for the sake of completion rather than letting it become great. Commit to the longer timeline. The next time something does not work out, say out loud: 'This is a layer, not a loss.' Interrupt the habit of treating setbacks as reasons to quit. Notable Quote I love the mistakes because nobody can take them from me. I love overcoming the failures because nobody can take it from you.

A man in a poly relationship is worried that his penis smells like his girlfriend's vagina despite his meticulous hygiene practices. This doesn't bother him. But when he eventually convinces someone else to go down on him, will they notice? Is there a "special soap" he could use? In Paris, in the year 1911, an employee of the Louvre made off with the Mona Lisa. Fast forward to the year 2024. A woman "acquired" an explicit erotic painting left behind in an office re-organization featuring two men who live above the space. After 2 years of it hanging on her wall, she really loves this painting. She thinks the couple commissioned the art. Does she have to return it to them, and what on earth should she say if she does? On the Magnum, in order to counter some of the skepticism around the practice of hypnokink, we welcome Daniel McGlothlen, kink educator, performer, and adult content creator who specializes in hypnosis.

In today's episode we welcome back psychotherapist and thought leader Shannon Algeo for his second visit to the podcast. We explore Shannon's new book, “The Power in Your Hands” about our relationship to our smart phones and his quest to liberate himself from his own attachment to technology. We talk about: How nature, biking, and music all shaped Shannon's early years and how they continue to nourish his soul when he feels the despair of digitization. When Shannon found himself in his early twenties as an influencer getting thousands of followers and likes, and the light and the shadow of this experience. His personal reckoning with the attachment to his phone and how he faced his own compulsive tendencies around this. The research about people's attachment style and how they relate to their phone. Several stories about his time in France while writing this book (one with the Mona Lisa) that revealed to him society's relationship to their phones and the anger he felt. The experiments he has done about going offline, including what he calls the “Sacred Slow” digital fast, that have changed his relationship to technology and to life.

Most founders hit the same wall: they're brilliant at the vision but drowning in the details — and the business stops growing because of it. In this episode, Jim Robinson breaks down the Visionary/Integrator dynamic from EOS and Rocket Fuel, and shares what 41 years in business (and thousands of employees) taught him about which hats to take off first. Jim explains how he discovered his own integrator early, why he made her a partner so she'd never leave, the 80% rule for delegating, and the "plant seeds on Monday, harvest on Friday" method for getting big ideas implemented without overwhelming your team. If you're a founder, entrepreneur, or leader wearing too many hats, this one's for you.⏱️ CHAPTERS00:22 – Welcome to Visionary Leader00:43 – What is EOS — and why you can't wear every hat01:33 – How Jim found his integrator (and made her a partner)03:00 – Visionary vs. Integrator: the two roles explained04:29 – Painting the Mona Lisa: storyteller vs. rule-maker06:57 – Why visionaries feel pressure to do it all10:33 – "It's not confusion — it's a creative mind at work"13:05 – Your first hire when you're wearing every hat15:19 – The hardest part: letting go (and the 80% rule)17:49 – Handling mistakes & building a culture of ownership21:09 – Positional health vs. personal health22:44 – Plant seeds on Monday, harvest on Friday25:52 – Too many rules: a pilot's lesson on structure27:30 – Closing: define your positions and learn to trust

In Other Lives Our Own (Spuyten Duyvil, 2025) Jason Weiss reflects on travel, language, memory, identity, and the stories we inherit and create. This conversation explores how we inhabit each other's stories, tracing how movement across places and languages reshapes our understanding of self and belonging. Drawing on experiences in New York, Paris, Mexico, California and beyond, Weiss reflects on what it means to be a foreigner, the shifting nature of home, and the limits of labels such as "American." Weiss reveals his gift for uncovering meaning in overlooked moments. He reflects on the value of curiosity, attentiveness, and recognizing significance in experiences that often go unnoticed. Whether discussing art, literature, family history, or everyday encounters, he argues that "in all our experiences there is more meaning than we normally give them." This conversation includes Jason Weiss, Jeffrey Herlihy-Mera and Jorge Rodríguez Acevedo. Other episodes of the Nuevos Horizontes podcast with Jason Weiss include discussions of his books Listenings (in English and Spanish) and Lights of Home: A Century of Latin American Literature in Paris. The Instituto Nuevos Horizontes is housed at the Universidad de Puerto Rico-Mayagüez. Topics, scholars, books and quotes mentioned: Susan Beegel Aurora Levins Morales "I think it [home] is a moving perspective." -Jorge Rodríguez Acevedo Heraclitus the Obscure "Where are you from? I think that changes." -Jorge Rodríguez Acevedo "If you say, 'you're from here' - you're too conscious of all that's missing from that answer." -Jason Weiss "Parisian as a temporary designation felt right, as I enjoyed being a foreigner." -Jason Weiss The Paradox of Choice "Most things are like lightbulbs; they burnout and we throw them away" -Jorge Rodríguez Acevedo John Steinbeck, Tortilla Flat Travel Writing "…lack curiosity about the ones who went away" (Other Lives Our Own 63). "Leaving disrupts a shared story, and the return doesn't quite fit the version of you they hold onto." -Jeffrey Herlihy-Mera "They thought [the US] was a land of boundless opportunities, not endless forgetting" (Other Lives our Own 37). "They didn't talk about the old country. The stuff to remember is predominantly not pleasant or they have that attitude that we have to look forward." -Jason Weiss on previous generations of Eastern European Jews "American culture has always been angled toward not remembering." -Jason Weiss "Myself, I find it complicated to work with [the word 'American']. But when you use it, I feel like I'm reading the cheeky, brilliant kid sitting in the back of the class, using it with all this other meaning." -Jeffrey Herlihy-Mera "Travel supercharged my desire to learn it [Spanish]." -Jason Weiss "It should be a requirement for everyone to know at least two languages...I think of it as a toolbox, it gives us the capacity to think in another way." -Jorge Rodríguez Acevedo "Every American should have to study Spanish.” -Jason Weiss Anti-intellectualism in the US "[A title can be] a wink at the reader." -Jason Weiss Juanes, "A dios le pido" "In another place, we are always someone else and maybe also the same. A little disoriented, almost lost, unsure of what we know. We speak another tongue, and our own tongue becomes different too: a secret among strangers, possibly a trap" (Other Lives our Own 21). Louis Leroy Claude Monet, Impression, Sunrise Bringing Back New Concepts to This Mad City, Caroline Hagood. Los Angeles Review of Books "The Gleaners and I," Agnès Varda "In all our experiences there is more meaning than we normally give them." -Jason Weiss "The crowd is at the Mona Lisa but in the room next door you see works that make you say.

Across this episode and the next, Justin and Bec are taking an extensive look at Elvis' home recordings made during his time in the US Army while serving in Germany. Though none of them surfaced until after his death, as we learned from "The Colonel & The King" last year, Elvis was explicitly encouraged by his manager to record material at home in secret. Excerpts from the tapes have appeared on such releases as A Legendary Performer Vol. 4, A Golden Celebration, Home Recordings, and Memphis Recording Services' "Made in Germany" - and by sheer coincidence, on the day we recorded the episode, the official Elvis collector's label Follow That Dream announced an upcoming 2026 box set "Elvis - Soldier Boy" that will feature two books and new restorations of these home recordings. What we hear on the tapes is a a fly on the wall glimpse of a deeply private celebrity during a period of intense homesick and loneliness, coping with the grief of having lost his mother and being away from everything he's come to know as a successful musician and film star... but also a determined, fully invested artist developing his skills. Plainly evident is Elvis exploring concepts and styles with friends, family and creative collaborators like Red West and Charlie Hodge, for his return to his career upon the end of his military service.  Songs like "Like A Baby" and "Are You Lonesome Tonight" foreshadow Elvis' singles and secular "Elvis is Back" album from 1960, while his love of gospel continues to be evident as "He Knows Just What I Need" and "His Hand in Mine" similarly nod toward the coming gospel album. Yet there on these tapes that Elvis never again touched (on known recordings, anyway): Hank Williams' "I Can't Help It If I Still In Love With You," Nat King Cole's "Mona Lisa," and Don Gibson's "Oh Lonesome Me," and many more! Was he just fooling around with songs he'd heard, or was he seriously considering these for his upcoming albums? And with material like "Are You Sincere," "Stand By Me" and "Danny Boy" popping up here, too: how do these home recordings fit into the larger puzzle of Elvis' musical journey from pre-Sun Records all the way to the Jungle Room? We ponder all that and more. A technical note: Aside from clips from the above box sets/compilations where specifically mentioned, most of the audio from the home recordings you'll hear is audio that has been "re-balanced" on a per-track basis for the purposes of education, analysis and historical interest. While the new FTD set is not available yet, and MRS's release was a decently faithful restoration of the tape, other releases have featured excessive noise removal, so much of what you hear in this episode are careful adjustments that aim to retain full content and quality while making the vocal nuances a bit clearer as though the tape recorder had been a bit closer to Elvis & the other vocalists' mouths rather than closer to the instruments. Hopefully you may hear little inflections or details you hadn't ever heard before! 

Raphael's years in Florence (c. 1504–1508) placed him at the center of one of the most extraordinary moments in Renaissance art, where he encountered both Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo at the height of their powers. Under the Soderini Republic, Florence became a stage for artistic innovation, marked by Michelangelo's David, Leonardo's Mona Lisa, and the unrealized battle frescoes commissioned for the Palazzo Vecchio.This episode explores how Raphael absorbed and transformed the lessons of these two rival masters. From Leonardo, he adopted naturalism, portrait composition, and sfumato; from Michelangelo, monumental form, line, and color. Yet Raphael forged a distinctive style defined by harmony, clarity, and balance, culminating in works such as the Maddalena Doni portraits and the Madonna of the Goldfinch before his departure to Rome under the patronage of Pope Julius II.Watch/Support/Learn: https://linktr.ee/italian_renaissance_podcastWorks Discussed: Michelangelo, David, 1501-1504 https://www.galleriaaccademiafirenze.it/opere/david-michelangelo/Leonardo da Vinci, Mona Lisa, 1503-19 https://collections.louvre.fr/en/ark:/53355/cl010062370Leonardo da Vinci, The Battle of Anghiari, unfinished, lost. Michelangelo, The Battle of Cascina, unfinished. Raphael, Portraits of Agnolo and Maddalena Doni, 1504-07 https://www.uffizi.it/en/artworks/portraits-doni-raffaelloRaphael, Madonna of the Goldfinch, 1506 https://www.uffizi.it/en/artworks/mary-christ-and-the-young-john-the-baptist-known-as-the-madonna-of-the-goldfinchThe Florentine Renaissance CourseSupport the show

Larry talks with you about every topic from jury duty to the Mona Lisa and back in hour 3. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Mona Lisa by Leonardo da Vinci is widely looked upon as the most famous painting in the world.By some historical estimates, the Mona Lisa took as many as 16 years to finish! Capturing Mona Lisa's famous smile on a poplar plank was no hack job; Leonardo accepted a commission for the work in the year 1503, and completed his masterpiece supposedly around the time of his death in 1519. Clearly, this level of artistic achievement takes time.When you hear the word “masterpiece,” what do you think of? A famous painting? A beautiful building maybe? Your child's latest artwork?What about a giant sequoia tree? A symphony? A pink flamingo? The intricate, miraculous design of the human heart?Ephesians 2:10 says, “For we are God's handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.”Before you were even born, God knew you, and He had a plan for your life. He created you for a purpose, and He considers you one of his personal works of art. You are a living, breathing miracle capable of wonderful things—God's own masterpiece.Let's pray.God, we thank you and praise you that in all of creation, you have chosen to make us in your image, and to fashion us as a masterpiece—a work of art designed with care. Help us to be worthy of your effort. In Jesus' name, amen. Change your shirt, and you can change the world!

My next door neighbor in our dorm in college always wanted to preach like Billy Graham. I mean he really wanted to preach like Billy Graham. He would record Billy Graham on his radio program, and then he would listen to the tapes over and over again. He would copy everything, including even the inflections of Billy's voice. And then he would watch Billy Graham. He studied his gestures; he'd try to get them down and gesture just when Billy Graham would. He'd hold his Bible like Billy Graham. Now you are going to think he was really a fanatic, but this really is true. He told me he even counted the words per minute that Billy Graham averaged and tried to get the same pace. Wow! That's a crazy way to approach ministry, huh? Well, it's more common than you might think. I'm Ron Hutchcraft and I want to have A Word With You today about “You Be You.” Our word for today from the Word of God – one of the most challenging, exciting statements in all of the New Testament – is in Ephesians 2:10. This is about you now. “For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works which God prepared in advance for us to do.” Wow! God has created you as a unique, one-of-a-kind servant, uniquely prepared, uniquely wired by Him for a very unique set of plans which He prepared in advance for you to carry out. The problem comes when we start to compare ourselves with other people. You really can't compare yourself because you are a category all by yourself. You might never count the words per minute in somebody's sermon to copy them, but maybe you are looking at someone else God is using and you're saying, “You know, I can't talk like that. I don't know what they know. I'm sort of shy; I'm not that outgoing. You know, I don't have the training they have. I could never serve God like that; I'm not like that person.” You're right! You're not like them. Hurray! You weren't meant to be. You were created for works only you can do. I think we should look for models and learn from their values and their thinking and their ways of working, but not to become clones. The Mona Lisa is an original, it's priceless, but you can buy a postcard of the Mona Lisa for like 50 cents at the museum, because copies are cheap. Originals are priceless. Don't devalue yourself by copying someone else; trying to be like someone else. There's so much in social media that makes us want to do that. Don't do it! That's an awful, unnatural bondage if you're still trying to be like someone else. You see, everything you need - to do what God put you here to do - you have. And all those things that you don't have? Guess what? You don't need. You've got the right hair, you've got the right height, you've got the right body, you've got the right voice, you've got the right intelligence, you've got the right talents, and you've got the right limitations - even your background. See, God is using your background to make you into that unique servant of His. He's weaving a tapestry, and putting into that tapestry the people and experiences that will make you the man or woman you were designed by Him to be. So be yourself! Relax! Be the person that God made for a unique role that you are destined to fulfill. You compare with somebody else? You'll never get off the ground. You try to copy someone else, and you will never be the person you were created to be. I think you can say as you look at your life and the plans that God has for it, “God, you know what You're doing.” He sure does. Thank Him for making you the only you there is, and don't try to be a Christian clone. You are an original. So, you be you.

We all do it - put things off, tell ourselves we'll start tomorrow, and somehow still miss the deadline. But chronic procrastination isn't just a bad habit; it's self-sabotaging behavior that can derail our goals, relationships, and even our health. Psychologist Dr. Joseph Ferrari, a leading expert on procrastination, breaks down the emotional roots of procrastination, debunks the myth that we "work best under pressure," and offers science-backed strategies for change. Plus - meet one of history's most legendary procrastinators: Leonardo da Vinci. Find out how his epic delays shaped the Mona Lisa, and why some believe he never truly finished it.   Thanks for enjoying this archive episode of This Is Your Brain.

Let's be honest, this episode should have been called ""Shop Talk"" because it's 70% theater rakes, 20% filmmaking and maybe 10% We Like Sportz. I guess we could have called it We Like Shop Talkz. Regardless, Jorm and Akiva are technically talking (as opposed to talking technically) about We Like Sportz from 2008 and featured on Incredibad. The second installment of the ""Just Two Guyz"" franchise we see Guy #1 and Guy #2 sing about their obsession with sports and definitely not their daddy issues. They get some great insight from Daniel Scheinert (of the Daniels who isn't spoiling their next movie, a slow boil court room drama) on theater rakes, and Chester Tam, and Jonah Hill, both of who were on site in Encino when this ""Mona Lisa"" was created. Plus a bonus dis track from Liz! Enjoy the episode and definitely let us know what you think about IMAX.

If you judge him by his own elaborate metrics, Leonardo da Vinci was a failure. Long before the Mona Lisa became shorthand for genius, Leonardo imagined himself as something else entirely: a military engineer, a designer of bridges and armoured vehicles, a master of siegecraft and architecture. In 1482, he wrote a breathless letter to Ludovico Sforza, Duke of Milan, itemising these talents with bravado and noting, quickly, that oh, he could paint, too. Many of his boldest designs never left the page, or arrived centuries too early to be built. By his own standards, the future-facing polymath fell short. In this episode, Elizabeth Day and Dan Jones roam through history's workshops, laboratories, monasteries, and battlefields to ask what failure really looks like. From Leonardo's unrealised machines to Antonie van Leeuwenhoek's accidental discovery of microbiology, from champagne's explosive beginnings to gunpowder's grim transformation, they trace how curiosity, misjudgement, and wrong turns can quietly reshape the world. What emerges is a gentler, stranger truth: failure is often just invention, waiting for the world to catch up. – As always, Dan's royal favourites can chime in anytime on the royal court on Patreon at patreon.com/thisishistory. And don't forget to listen to this season's accompanying bonus episodes for this miniseries, where Dan and Producer Al are dissecting the biggest historical failures as submitted by the royal favourites. In this episode, they discuss history's colossal maritime failures, from the White Ship disaster to the Titanic. – A Sony Music Entertainment production.
